<ul>
<li>Fixed a regression in 256.29 where Performance Level clock
frequencies were reported incorrectly in nvidia-settings. </li>
<li>Fixed a 3D Vision Stereo bug that caused the stereo glasses to
not
toggle when the flat panel was not running at its native mode timings. </li>
<li>Fixed a bug that caused nvidia-settings to crash when rendering
its
thermal gauge widget if the range of valid values for the thermal
sensor
was empty. </li>
<li>Fixed a bug which prevented use of high performance PowerMizer
levels
on systems with certain ACPI configurations. </li>
<li>Fixed a bug that caused non-primary Fermi GPUs to fail to
initialize
framebuffer memory. This caused a variety of symptoms, up to and
including system hangs. </li>
<li>Added unofficial GLX protocol support (i.e., for GLX indirect
rendering) for the following OpenGL extensions:
<ul>
GL_ARB_blend_func_extended
GL_ARB_draw_buffers_blend
GL_ARB_sample_shading
GL_ARB_timer_query
GL_EXT_draw_buffers2
GL_EXT_separate_shader_objects
GL_NV_explicit_multisample
GL_NV_transform_feedback
</ul>
</li>
<li>Improved Thermal Settings reporting in nvidia-settings to
accurately
reflect hardware configurations with multiple thermalsensors. </li>
<li>Fixed an interaction problem between Compiz
and'screen-scraping' VNC
servers like x11vnc and vino that caused the screento stop updating.
Fixes Launchpad bug #353126. </li>
<li>Enhanced VDPAU to add basic support for Xinerama. VDPAU will
now
operate on a single physical X screen under Xinerama. See theREADME for
more details. </li>
<li>Enhanced VDPAU's handling of corrupt clips of all formats on
GPUs
with VDPAU feature set C to be at least as good as on GPUs with VDPAU
feature set B. This significantly improves various clips provided by
nvnews.net user eamiller. </li>
<li>Fixed a bug in Xv attribute handling that caused hue,
saturation,
brightness, and contrast values to be misapplied when using an Xv
overlay
adaptor. </li>
<li>Fixed a bug in the XvMC driver that prevented it from working
on
systems with AGP graphics cards. </li>
<li>Enhanced VDPAU to clear all VdpVideoSurfaces to black when
allocated.This provides more consistent results when using a surface as
a
reference when no prior decode operation has written to that surface.In
turn, this improves the results of decoding some corrupt streams,such
as
"p_only_no_play" from ffmpeg bug 1124. </li>
<li>Implemented new APIs to allow sharing VDPAU surfaces with
OpenGL and
CUDA. The OpenGL extension is GL_NV_vdpau_interop. For CUDA, please see
the documentation in the CUDA toolkit for details. </li>
<li>Worked around a bug where the combination of a GPU with VDPAU
feature
set A together with specific motherboard chipsets could cause visible
corruption when decoding some MPEG-2 streams </li>
<li>Fixed a bug that prevented the VDPAU overlay-based presentation
queue
from being used more than a few hundred times per X server invocation. </li>
<li>Renamed the driver file libGLcore.so.VERSION to
libnvidia-glcore.so.VERSION, as a small step towards reducing the
filename collisions between NVIDIA's and MESA's OpenGL
implementations.This driver file is used by NVIDIA's libGL.so and
libglx.so, and should never be used directly by applications. </li>
<li>Compressed the nvidia-settings, nvidia-installer, and
nvidia-xconfig
tarballs with bzip2, rather than gzip. </li>
</ul>

Looking forward to that driver series, however its still pre-release
stuff from what I understand. Once Zander officially releases it, I'll
be offering an update asap :)<br>
